病理学家可以使用医院内联网在另一个房间从原始幻灯片中练习远程病理学，如果使用“虚拟组织学图像”或数字幻灯片审查CD-ROM，他/她可以练习远程病理学。随着病理学变得越来越亚专业化，并且病理学家逐渐更多地参与他们可能不在集中实验室位置的实践情况，远程病理学技术的使用可能越来越普遍。我们触及选择法医学和报销问题在远程病理学的实践。主要和次要的法律的来源进行审查，以及主要的医学参考。远程病理学是远程医疗的一个不断发展的领域。指导方针的主要意见远程病理学应驱动传统的实验室程序的最佳实践，可以提高病理学的实践。然而，在开展这项工作时，应认识到涉及这种做法的法律的和管理环境也在不断变化。(c)2009 Elsevier Inc.

A pathologist may practice telepathology in another room from the original slide using the hospital intranet, he/she may practice it if a CD-ROM is reviewed with a "virtual histologic image" or digital slide. As pathology becomes increasingly subspecialized, and pathologists are progressively more engaged in practices situations where they may not be in a centralized laboratory location, use of telepathology technology may be increasingly common. We touch on select medicolegal and reimbursement issues in the practice of telepathology. Primary and secondary legal sources are reviewed, as well as primary medical references. Telepathology is an evolving area of telemedicine. Guidelines for primary opinion telepathology should be driven from best practices in conventional laboratory procedures and can enhance the practice of pathology. However, it should be undertaken with the understanding that the legal and regulatory environment involving such practices is evolving as well. (c) 2009 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
